Quickstart version for users:
0) Download the absolute newest version. No, really.
http://freehaven.net/tor/dist/
1) tar xvf it, and then cd into the directory.
2) ./configure
3) make
4) make install (as root if necessary)
5) tor (if it doesn't work, give it the whole path or fix your path)
You don't need to run this as root, and you probably shouldn't.
(If you're having problems, try running it with "-l info" to get
more details.)
6) point your browser to socks4 or socks5 proxy at localhost port
9050. In mozilla, this is in edit|preferences|advanced|proxies. This
allows you to test to make sure tor is installed correctly.
(If you have a personal firewall, be sure to allow local connections
to port 9050.)
(If your firewall blocks outgoing connections, punch a hole so it
can connect to TCP *:9001-9004 and *:9031-9033)
(If you're using Safari as your browser, keep in mind that OS X before
10.3 claims to support socks but does not. You must do step 8.)
7) make sure you've set it up correctly: go to
http://www.junkbusters.com/cgi-bin/privacy and see what IP it says
you're coming from. If it works, you should probably go on to step 8,
to get better privacy.
8) Optionally, install privoxy (www.privoxy.org), and add the line
"forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 ." (without the quotes -- don't forget
the dot) to its config file. Then change your mozilla to http proxy
at localhost port 8118 (and no socks proxy). You should also set your
SSL proxy to the same thing, to hide your https traffic. Using privoxy
will give you good html scrubbing as well.
(See doc/CLIENTS for why direct socks gives you less anonymity.)
*****If this works for you, you can stop reading here******
If you got the source from cvs:
Run "./autogen.sh", which will run the various auto* programs and then
run ./configure for you. From there, start at step 3 in the quickstart
list above.
If the quickstart doesn't work for you:
If you have problems finding libraries, try
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" \
./configure
rather than simply ./configure.
If you have mysterious autoconf failures while linking openssl,
consider setting your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the openssl lib directory.
For example, "setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/athena/lib".
